CBS sports just announced that the lockout may be over. The league is supposed to make an announcement tomorrow. Anyone else here this?

The only news I've seen regarding tomorrow is the proposed meeting between both sides minus Fehr and Bettman. Just checked CBSSports.com and their headlines include the possibility of Crosby and Toews being among those to represent the players at this meeting and Bettman being the commissioner during three lockouts thus reinforcing his spot as the most unpopular man in hockey. There wasn't anything about the supposed end of the lockout. Would be nice.

I was watching the local news CBS-WBZ when the sports announcer said that the news was just coming in and an announcement was coming tomorrow. Can't find anything about it on the web...

I'm with you. How the heck does Steve Burton have this and not one mention of it on TSN.ca?

The only thing I can possibly think of, is Donald Fehr doesnt like the fact that something may get done without him and is making a move here. Now, while Burton cares about hockey as much as I care about politics he may have an inside source with Fehr. Unlikely, but it's the only thing I can come up with.

Hagg's mentioned that he was the one who broke the Kessel cancer story. So this might have some merit.

Hockey fans can only hope but somehow i have my doubts. Not to say there won't be anything positive out of the meeting tomorrow, i certainly will keep my fingers crossed. I read on the CBS sports/hockey site that Bill Daly denied the story and said it was entirely false, but maybe Burton's source is higher up than Daly (;

Though, to be perfectly honest, I don't want to hear another G.D. thing about negotiations until a deal is done, or the season is cancelled.

And if the latter, then I'm done with hockey forever.

Who is a credible hockey reporter? Bob MacKenzie? Scott Cullen? Darren Dreger? While he may not be writing hockey stories on a daily basis, Boston news crews are pretty good. And honesty, F Bob MacKenzie and all of his followers. People would take a bullet for the guy and for what? Because he's "always right"? He guesses like anyone else and reports most things when it's already known.
